Teen charged with taping sex act with minor, posting it online:

Thanks to Jessica we have this story out of Kentucky about one 18-year-old Jeurne Sterling Walton. He was arrested for recording a sexual encounter between himself and a 15-year-old girl on his cell phone then posting the video to MySpace.

The victim said she had oral sex with Walton in April, according to court records.

“She did not know that the suspect was using his cell phone to record the act because he told her that he was only text messaging a friend and was not recording,” records said.

As word of its existence spread on or around April 27, the video was passed from student to student at Bryan Station through iPods, cell phones and other electronic devices.

“We picked up the talk among students,” district spokeswoman Lisa Deffendall said.

Walton pleaded not guilty to various charges involving sex with a minor. Wait, what? Not guilty when there’s video proof? I’d love to hear the defense on this one.

Anyway, I could not find his MySpace however Jessica was kind enough to provide his mugshot.

    R Kelly did the same thing. Plead not guilty with video evidence. A video shot in his own home! Just another waste of our hard earned tax dollars.

    “No, that’s not my house. No, that’s not my carpet. No, that’s not a picture of me and my mom on the wall. No, that’s not my sign saying “This is R Kelly’s House!!” ”

    Just because someone has evidence against you doesn’t mean you give up your right to a jury trial by pleading guilty.

    Everyone in this country has that right and anyone who automatically pleads guilty upon arraignment hasn’t had ANY sound legal advice.

    He’s a waste of space predator regardless but they should tack on an extra five years for fooling with his cell phone AT ALL with THAT going on. That is almost criminally insane that the girl thought ”just texting” was fine!

    Title should be changed to

    “15 will get you twenty if you are 18 and dumb enough to record it.”

    Can’t really see this guy as a predator based on age difference… just some immature guy that wanted to show off. Jerk yes, child rapist no.

    Is she objecting to anything in the video?

    Sh*t there’s a 5+ year difference between my parents.

    It’s not “black and white” all the time people.

    You can’t tell me, with the boom of the internet and cellphones and all the technology that goes with it, that the average 18 year old realizes the crimes he is committing when he does something stupid like this.

    Where are kids taught that these acts are really bad? And why they are bad? Obviously, they know they are doing something wrong, but I don’t think they get the seriousness of the crime.

    It is a scientific fact that young brains do not have full development of the frontal lobe, which is where adults tap into for sound judgement.

    This young girl desperately needs help. Let’s hope she gets it before she ends up in a worse situation.
